Elevated Windbreaker Jacket Streetwear in Metallic Thread with Open Back

Elevated Windbreaker Jacket Streetwear in Metallic Thread with Open Back

A Streetwear Collective approached us to develop a elevated windbreaker jacket streetwear around a single idea: open back, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for Poland and needed elevated finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.

The challenge

• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Metallic Thread was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The windbreaker jacket streetwear was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Open Back was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Streetwear Collective launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
